Compass Rose Earrings By Janet McMahon

Here are some novelty earrings I made the other day. I thought the motif looked a bit like a compass. They are very easy to crochet as there are only three rounds of crochet. I used Coats mercer crochet cotton #20 and a 1.5mm hook. Heres how I made them:

Yarn 2 colours of crochet cotton only small amounts needed. Hook 1.5 mm. Notions earring hooks.

Pattern (English terms used) Finished size 3cm in diameter Special instruction spiked dc = insert hook into space on 1st row below st indicated and work dc as normal. Base ring: using 1st colour make 4ch, sl st to join into a ring. 1st round: 5ch (counts as 1 tr and 2 ch), [1 tr into ring, 2 ch] 7 times, sl st into 3rd of 5 ch. (8 spaces) 2nd round: 3 ch (count as 1 tr), 3 tr into next space, [1 tr into next tr, 3 tr into next space] 7 times, sl st into top of 3 ch. (32 stitches). Fasten off 1st colour. 3rd round: Join in 2nd colour, 1 ch, 2 dc into same place, 1 dc into next tr, 1 spiked dc over next stitch, work a picot (3 ch, insert hook into top of spiked dc and work sl st to close), 1 dc into next tr, [2 dc into next tr, 1 dc into next tr, 1 spiked dc over next stitch, work a picot (3 ch, insert hook into top of spiked dc and work sl st to close), 1 dc into next tr] 7 times, sl st into 1st dc to close. Fasten off. Attach earring hooks to one of the picots.

Simple but effective.
